TRAVEL INFORMATION
GETTING THERE
By plane:
The Dresden airport is rather small, but very new modern buildings make you feel comfortable.
Taking a taxi to town will cost you approximately 20-25 EURO.
Taking the S-Bahn to the stations (see Dresden by rail) is fast and cheaper:
The S-Bahn station is on the lower level of the new terminal building. It takes you 13 minutes to travel to/from Dresden-Neustadt station, and about 22 minutes to/from Dresden Hauptbahnhof. A single ticket for the fare zone Dresden is EUR 2.30 (valid on S-Bahn, tram and bus). Day passes 6,00 Euro.
By train:
There are two big railway stations: The Neustädter Bahnhof is situated right of the river Elbe (recommended for all destinations on that side of the town, e.g. Neustadt, Weißer Hirsch) and the main station (Hauptbahnhof) on the left side of the Elbe (fine if you stay in the historic center or the hotels at the Prager Straße).
By car:
– from Cologne / Frankfurt via Eisenach take the motorway (Autobahn) A4
– from Münster / Osnabrück or Hannover via Magdeburg / Leipzig (A 14)
– from Hamburg via Berlin and the A 13
– from Munic / Nürnberg via Chemnitz (A 72/A4)
The hotels have a guiding system (a single letter and the name of the hotel on green signs) – ask your hotel for the correct route!
Transportation
Public Transport in Dresden is comfortable. You can reach the venue best by bus (line 66 outword bound to either Freital-Deuben or Coschütz or Mockritz, bus-stop Mommsenstraße). For prices see above under arriving by plane.
